This game ranks high on the hilarity chart.
You can either be EVIL or REALLY EVIL. It isn’t possible to go through the game without amassing a harem. When you conquer towns, you can either destroy the town, or dominate the villagers to work slavishly for your needs. There are a LOT of great moments in this game, and even though it’s more puzzle based than combat, it’s not frustratingly complex like some puzzle games are. Unlike the last game, the minions can get mounts, and the Overload can actually possess a minion to get into spaces that are to small for his body. The tweaks to the system itself may not seem like much, but they add up and make Overlord II a better experience.
Personal favorite moment of mine… you’re stealing a ship to sail overseas to the elven nation to conquer it, when you spot a ton of sea mines blocking your route to the open ocean. Now, you can ram your ship through to try to force a path, but the better (and more entertaining) solution is to cause a pack of baby seals to panic and swim into the ocean away from your Dark Majesty and minions…and into said minefield.
